Malaysia TVXQ Fans Support (MTFS) For TVXQ! LIVE WORLD TOUR “Catch Me” in KUALA LUMPUR [REPORT]

18 May 2013 – TVXQ! has finally concluded its LIVE WORLD TOUR “Catch Me” in KUALA LUMPUR. After much preparation for the past two months, we would like to thank each and every Cassiopeia who supported us and accompanied us throughout this entire journey. We will not succeed without your attention and support all this while for sure, so thank you once more.

We would also like to thank all the supporting volunteers. Without your help, the fan-supports will not succeed as well. Even under the hot blazing sun at 2:00PM, you were willing to give us outstanding support and to make sure each attendee would receive their respective goods of ours. Not to mention to those who stood at every entrance of the stadium to give out our support goods too. We appreciate your hard work and we are so grateful for your presence.

Food Support:

In this concert, although we here at Malaysia TVXQ Fans Support (MTFS) often discuss with the organizer, JPM Music, pertaining to our food support for TVXQ!, we only received requests for a comprehensive list of food and snacks from the Korean side, from TVXQ! as well as from its own crew just a week before the concert. Thus, during the concert week starting on that Monday, we began our food support back and forth for a total of three times in order to fulfil their requests.

First batch of food support sent on May 13, 2013 including snacks.

We sent snacks including chocolates, candies, cookies, puddings and others which some are of Korean brands and local. Our main concern was nutrition (not including snacks), convenience, and up to TVXQ!’s likings; Yunho’s favourite strawberries and Changmin’s hot and spicy food. While we were carrying out the packaging, we were considering if the duo will see our food support. So, we began putting on our MTFS stickers onto each packaging and onto some paper bags. On Monday noon, we dispatched our first four boxes and four bags of food support into JPM Music’s office and that they would let us know when they have placed them into TVXQ!’s lounge through an update on Facebook.

Second batch of food support sent on May 17, 2013 night.

We prepared 20 bottles of fresh yogurts of four different tastes among five bottles, two bottles of milk, six boxes of nourishing cereals of three different tastes among two boxes, cakes, Old Town White Coffee and Ali Café beverages.

We also prepared a celebration cake with “We Are T” and Yunho’s famous thumbs-up.

[We were informed by one of the staff that Changmin was happy after noticing our cake support and snacks and began indulging them, especially when the staff saw Changmin drank the yogurts.]

The Red Ocean:

To make up the unsuccessful red ocean for the past six years, MTFS was determined to give the audience a full red ocean in the stadium. Even though we believed that fans will bring in their own red light sticks to show their support, we prepared 2,000 red light sticks beforehand as we feared and just in case fans who do not bring them into the stadium. Although there were some misunderstandings in one of the stadium entrance, we managed to pull it off and presented a magnificent red ocean in the stadium. We are so thankful for all committed fans that helped in making this red ocean a success. (Special thanks to GOKPOP which sponsored another extra 1,000 red light sticks!)

The Purple Ocean:

After much discussion with TVXQDream13, we got to know that they only prepared a total of 2,000 purple light sticks for this purple ocean surprise support. To make it even more successful, prior two weeks before the concert, we decided to cooperate with TVXQDream13 with an addition of another 2,000 purple light sticks for this support. We gave those light sticks to PS1, PS2 and PS3 zones while TVXQDream13 was in charge of Premium and VIP Seatings and Rock Zones.

There was an incident happened back then during the purple light sticks delivery but it went well and thanks to the two Cassiopeia from Guangzhou who managed to help us to solve the problem. We would like to thank Claire who helped us to pick up our goods from the airport at 5:00AM.

Hand-held Slogan Banners Support:

More than 8000 pieces of our slogan banners occupied the entire Malawati Indoor Stadium. With a project that was carried out twice, we were deeply touched to see both Changmin and Yunho projecting their eyes onto our banners.

We thank Ukey who was in charge of the slogan banners printing, to Ginny who followed up with the updates and Peikah who was responsible in delivering them to the stadium. Not to forget to the staff who were helping to give out these banners under the scorching afternoon sun of May 18.

Encore Support:

During the encore, the Malaysian fans sang a memorable song, “I Swear” among the crowd instead of the past Encore. Thanks to everyone who sang together and to the male fan who shouted “We Are T” after this encore support.

“❤ T” Word Formation:

Although this particular word formation was not really successful, we would also like to show our gratitude to Xiao Mai, Claire, Fily and Pei Yi for the help. We promise to work even harder and would do our best next time.

Even though May 18 went by and it has been more than a week now, our miss towards that day will not go down even the time goes by. Thank you JPM Music for bringing TVXQ! to Malaysia. In our conversation with JPM Music after the concert, who knows if they would bring the duo to Malaysia once more next year? With the help of Cassiopeia who joined as staff members, it wouldn’t be a success if it wasn’t you.

Just like Yunho said at the concert, “From Malaysia, the history begins!” Are you ready?
